"The Mindy Project," the laugh-out-loud-worthy FOX sitcom starring Mindy Kaling, centers around the quirky men and women who work in a New York City OB-GYN clinic. (Full disclosure: I'm a huge fan.) The show has explored race, unrequited love, the awkwardness of dating coworkers, sexting, body image and birth control. But one subject that Iit won't be touching appears to be abortion.

Kaling, the show's star and creator, recently told FLARE Magazine that, "It would be demeaning to the topic to talk about it in a half-hour sitcom.”
